Black Island Brewer
An Ode to Beer
Over the summer I finished my 2-tier brew stand, to which I mounted three 10 inch banjo burners to heat the HLT, the MLT, and the boil keggle. I used them for both the high BTUs when needed, ad well as good flame control. I mounted them into a galvanized tube as a wind screen, and mounted that to the frame. I've done 4 batches, and I'm wondering about the distance from the top of the burner to the bottom of the keggles. I've got 10 inches to the bottom of the chines. I seem to get a lot of heat loss around the sides. I mounted them that low to try to prevent scorching the mash when I apply direct heat and recirc, and to not scorch the wort in the boil kettle.
Does anyone use these burners with keggles, and if so, how far below?
